| Deadpan Door Shut | comment |
A scene where someone opens something, usually a door, to something completely unexpected: a Crapsack World, Cloudcuckooland, a supposed threat, or an abomination of any variety. Instead of freaking out, they simply close the door with little to no reaction toward what they've just seen outside of it. This trope will often leave a character needing to reevaluate what they've just seen behind the door, sometimes causing some form of Dissonant Serenity before they can actually find the right kind of response for what they've just witnessed. In some cases, they will remain completely serene to the entire situation, and many will blatantly deny what they've just witnessed. Some will exclaim that they want no part of this situation while others may have a slightly more negative or disgusted reaction, but not without a Beat or a Dramatic Pause. A supertrope to Open the Door and See All the People. Compare Escape Route Surprise. Compare and contrast Sorry to Interrupt. May be accompanied by a Screw This, I'm Outta Here; Not What It Looks Like; I Have Nothing to Say to That; Backing Away Slowly, and/or a "No. Just… No" Reaction. |

Looney Tunes: In "Easter Yeggs", Bugs keeps running into Elmer trying to shoot him in every door he opens. On the third door, he finds something worse: the Dead End Kid who was pestering him earlier. In "Bugs Bunny and the Three Bears", Bugs is trying to escape Abhorrent Admirer Mama Bear, but she's waiting for him in every door he tries to open, attempting to seduce him. In both "The Prize Pest" and "Hot Crossed Bunny", a character (Daffy and Bugs, respectively) enter a closet, not noticing that there is a skeleton inside (a literal skeleton in the closet). There is a beat, and the character comes out performing a Wild Take. In "The Duckorcist", Daffy opens a kitchen drawer and sees a live-action train headed for him. He closes the door with a puzzled look in his face. |

Woody Woodpecker: In A Fine Feathered Frenzy, Gorgeous Gal, a rich, middle-aged Abhorrent Admirer, shows up dressed "seductively" in different outfits at every door Woody Woodpecker opens as he tries to escape from her. That includes a vault door (of a fridge, where she's hanging upside down among dead pigs), curtains (revealing Gorgeous Gal in a bathtub blowing soap bubbles) a TV screen, and a fireplace. Finally, Woody hides behind two heavy, reinforced castle gates, just to run into Gorgeous Gal dressed as a bride and a priest expecting for him. Woody is so desperate he opens a hole on the two gates to escape. | |

Then her twin sister Tsukasa, who's still wearing the winter uniform, opens the door to her room. Realizing that Kagami had changed to the summer uniform, she quietly backs out and closes the door behind her, while Kagami laments that the one who forgot is her own sister. | |

Fawlty Towers: In "The Anniversary", Basil has spent the whole episode convincing his guests that Sybil is ill in bed. Just as the guests are about to leave, Sybil suddenly enters. Basil calmly leads her into the kitchen, completely ignoring Manuel and Terry who are fighting on the floor, and locks Sybil in a cupboard. He then goes back out, closing the kitchen door behind him, and says goodbye to the guests as if nothing has happened. A downplayed version also happens in "The Kipper and the Corpse". Basil is in the kitchen, frantically preparing sausages for Doctor Price; and seen through the kitchen door, Miss Tibbs sounds the reception bell, asking for a word with Basil, which he does not want to deal with just then; so he quietly closes the kitchen door, and ignores it. |

Hey Arnold!: In "Girl Trouble," Arnold calls Helga to apologize for losing his temper at her earlier. Helga is completely enraptured by the thought of Arnold telephoning her and delivers a lengthy monologue about how wonderful the situation is, eventually entangling herself in the phone cord and tumbling to the ground. Her father Big Bob comes to investigate, sees her lying on the floor, and grunts "I'm not even gonna ask" before slamming her bedroom door shut. | |

Cells at Work!: Played Four Laughs. AE 3803 is a rookie red blood cell with absolutely no sense of orientation, and working in a place as complex as the human body is only natural that she gets lost and enters places she shouldn't. On one such occasion, she ends up in the alveolar complex where a hostile bacterium is lurking. She knocks and then opens the door of an alveolar sack hoping to ask for directions. She and the bacterium tensely stare at each other and, after a Beat, she closes the door. The bacterium then burst out of the wall yelling that "don't pretend nothing happened!". | |

Mickey's Christmas Carol: Scrooge opens the curtains of his bed to find the Ghost of Christmas Present (played by Willie the Giant) sitting in his bedroom. He quickly closes the curtains, then peeks through to check if he was just seeing things, and is met with Willie's gigantic eye staring back at him. | |

Gravity Falls has two examples in the episode "Northwest Mansion Mystery": The start of the episode shows Mabel, Candy, and Grenda in awe of the Northwest family's standard of living when somebody knocks on the door. Dipper comments that Pacifica Northwest is the worst and he'd tell her that to her face, then opens the door to reveal Pacifica. The Stinger involves Agents Power and Trigger (the latter Disguised in Drag) having an argument in a coat closet at the party that sounds Like an Old Married Couple. Then Tambry walks in. |
